The stars at night are big and bright

Deep in the heart of Texas

The prairie sky is wide and high

Deep in the heart of Texas

The coyotes wail along the trail

Deep in the heart of Texas

The rabbits rush around the brush

Deep in the heart of Texas

The chicken hocks are full of squawks

Deep in the heart of Texas

The oil wells are full of smells

Deep in the heart of Texas

The cactus plants are tough on pants

Deep in the heart of Texas

That's why perhaps, they all wear shafts

Deep in the heart of Texas

The cowboys cry, "ki-yippee-aye"

Deep in the heart of Texas

The doggies ball, and say you all

Deep in the heart of Texas

The cactus plants are tough on pants

Deep in the heart of Texas

That's why perhaps, they all wear shafts

Deep in the heart of Texas

Yippee
